Pacnet expands CloudSpace data center facility in Sydney

Telecom Lead Asia: Communication provider
Pacnet has announced the expansion of its CloudSpace data center facility in
Sydney to meet the growing demand for data center services in Australia.

In addition to upgrading its current facilities, the
company is also looking at new geographies as part of their plans for the next
phase of CloudSpace data center expansion.

 

“This is the latest in our series of investments
into growing our CloudSpace infrastructure, as we expand our capabilities to
help businesses take advantage of the cloud,” said Bill Barney, chief
executive officer, Pacnet.

 

According to the latest research from Frost and Sullivan,
the Australia data center services market is forecast to grow from US$447
million in 2010 to US$1.2 billion in 2017, at a compounded annual growth rate
of 15.1 per cent.

 

Launched in February 2011, the Sydney CloudSpace1 (SYCS1)
data center located at Liverpool will add up to 700 racks and 3 MW of power to
the facility with this second phase of expansion.

 

CloudSpace data centers are premier Tier III data center
facilities fully-operated by Pacnet and built to exacting standards to offer a
high-availability environment for mission-critical equipment.

 

The company said that these facilities can easily meet
the high-power, high-performance and high-efficiency requirements of
content-driven organizations and multi-site organizations.

CloudSpace facility, HKCS1.

 

HKCS1 was launched together with SGCS1, Pacnet’s
pioneering CloudSpace facility in Singapore. Pacnet currently owns and manages
four CloudSpace data centers, which are part of its network of 23 data centers
